Madhubala was heir to two inheritances of her father-wealth and heart disease. . She was leading a lonely life-her only solace being the Doctor who was more like a father to her. Many young people were meeting her off and on with ulterior motives and there was regular tussle between them to win her favours. Amongst them the most insistent was Kalicharan, the proprietor of a dramatic company. . Madhubala was passing her days trying to draw what comfort she could. Seeing her condition, the Doctor advised her to go to a village as the cool and sedate atmosphere over there would have a soothing effect on her. . In the village Madhubala met Ashok. Each thought the other a bit overbearing in behaviour. But time and meetings tore down and effaced the first bad impressions and both began to love each other. They decided to marry. . Preparations for marriage were going ahead. As luck would have it, Madhubalas friends headed by Kalicharan came to the village in search of her. Gauging the state of affairs, Kalicharan decided his game. He cracked cruel jokes at Ashokss cost. Ashok was stung to the quick. He felt that Madhubala was party to this. He broke up the preparation for the marriage. Because of Ashoks attitude Madhubala came to the city but with a weakened heart. She began to lose interest in life. . Ashok began to relent. He came to the city and met Madhubala. But Madhubalas cold attitude upset him. He felt as if the whole world had gone against him and he, in a frenzy, began to create havoc and nuisance in the street. He was fined for this misdemeanour. He was released as madhubala paid the fine. Kalicharan played his cards expertly. He whispered into Ashoks ears that Madhubala paid up the find just to spite him. He engaged him in his dramatic company in order to put an end to Ashoks life. A burning cutain fell on Ashoks head and he lost his eyesight. Madhubala went to the hospital to see him but Ashok scolded her. . Ashok went to his native place. . Madhubala went to the village. She got herself engaged at his place under an assumed name...Sheela. Under her careful nursing Ashoks eyes were cured. When Ashok came to know that Sheela and Madhubala were the same, he got excited. But Randhir explained the position and on the misunderstanding being removed, the lovers were united. [Source: Booklet] Check out this page for more updates on Madhubala.
